  1. 1. Re-entry permit is for green card holders who want to leave the US for up to 2 years without losing their residency. You need Advance Parole, this is for people with pending adjustment of status. 2. As of April 1, 2024 fees for I-131 and I-765 are paid separately and not included in I-485 fees.
  2. As previously discussed, if your husband (sponsor) makes enough to sponsor you, don't bother including your income.
  3. I would do just that too. Attend the interview - the risk of issues with rescheduling is minimal this way. And you can enjoy the trip knowing you'll become the citizen once you're back 😊
  4. What name did you use in I-485? Married or maiden? Sometimes it's just easier to change name as part of N-400 to avoid all of this hassle now during immigration process. With everything updated in the US, how easy would it be for her to update the name in foreign passport?
  5. The cleanest way is to finalize previous relationship before committing to the new one. You may be asked why you are engaged while still legally married to the other person. I don't believe you're breaking any laws and people got their K-1s in similar circumstances, but it may require more relationship evidence etc.
  6. How can you prove domicile with outdated DL? Going there, registering to vote at indending address etc etc can only reduce chances of any hiccups in the process.
  7. +100 fmto this. Forms are glitchy, better fill them on computer and save copies
  8. It should be possible to do in under $50. Not a big amount to ensure everything is translated by a specialist who does it for living. It's worth the price, considering it can save you time if USCIS doesn't like translation you did or you make mistake translating. Good luck!
  9. I want to add more on top of your comment. @TravelingLilly posted in another thread they have pending I-751. This is increased risk of things going wrong. E.g. USCIS can be silly enough to move N-400 as requested but still attempt running I-751 interview on the day... If I was you @TravelingLilly I would prioritize immigration. I'd probably modify the trip to be in the US for interviews. There's a great chance with pending I-751 you won't get naturalized same day. @RLA did you have pending I-751 when you were rescheduling N-400?
  10. It cannot be. I-751 must be approved for N-400 to be approved. If you filed I-751 jointly, your US citizen spouse must come with you. There's a great chance USCIS will run interviews for both I-751 and N-400. If your spouse is not there, here is what may happen:
  11. Yes, there is income requirement for sponsor. It's 125% of Poverty Guideline. https://www.uscis.gov/i-864p
  12. I believe Writ of Mandamus could help
  13. There's great chance WoM would work for a case pending for 20+ months. I wouldn't file it for a case pending less than a year, it would be dismissed most likely. I hope WoM doesn't become an instrument misused to the point it won't be effective anymore.
  14. Make sure you go to his interview. Good luck!
  15. https://www.uscis.gov/citizenship/find-study-materials-and-resources/study-for-the-test Anything related to your immigration history, marital status. This depends on whether you have I-751 pending. If you do, make sure to bring your spouse and updated marital evidence. Tax returns are useful to have to prove good moral character. If you had any criminal convictions - documentatiob around that. Any marriages / divorces, kids info. I'd bring those.
  16. USCIS has 120 days to issue a decision after N-400 interview. Did the other person have combo interview too? I wouldn't worry for another month or so. Your case is still being processed quickly. Only a year ago it was not unusual to wait a year for N-400 interview, but you got it in 6 months. If you never applied for N-400 you'd likely be hearing nothing about I-751 for another year or so. Keep us updated, I'm sure you'll hear from USCIS soon!
  17. Processing times are available here: https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/ To me, 3-4 months is a high expectation. Maybe few lucky ones were processed at that speed, but I wouldn't count on it. Interview in a month certainly happens, not sure if it's the norm though.
